CSA Week 2 and Menu Plan


This weeks Farm Share includes... Mesclun, Lettuce, Italian dandelion Greens, Baby Turnips with Greens, Radishes with Greens, Arugula, Cilantro, Dill, and Ultra Lean Hamburger Patties

Wednesday ~ Sandwiches
Thursday ~ Sauteed Garlic Dandelion Pasta (Recipe from 8 Mile Creek Farm)
Friday ~ Pita Pizza with Arugula topping...(tried it with spinach last week and it was great, this week the newsletter from the farm suggests putting Arugula as a topping on pizza so we shall give it a shot!)

Two tips from the farm... 1) Apparently Turnip Greens are extremely healthy and packed with all sorts of nutrients and make an excellent salad when chopped up, and 2) Radish greens make an excellent soup so it was suggested we save the greens from this week and add them to the Radishes we get next week to make the soup...
